    GREATEST METAL ALBUM CUP - Winner: Iron Maiden - Seventh Son of a Seventh Son!

    Can't dedicate as much time to this game as I used to, but I don't want to keep skipping rounds. Have to decide on smaller samples. Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti - Not my favorite from them, but it has a higher number of tracks that connect with me. Rainbow - Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow -...

    Fans of a band acting entitled? Nah, can't be.

    GREATEST METAL ALBUM CUP - Winner: Iron Maiden - Seventh Son of a Seventh Son!

    It's just a meme. Most people using that term don't actually think you are a boomer. Just the current way of ridiculing the out-of-touch old man. Boomers being really old is the reason why the meme works. It's similar to how "millennial" is used to refer to younger generations in general. You...

    Douche (duş) means shower in Turkish as well. Some guy in my department at uni once said to the professor "motherfucker" and "cocksucker" while making a point about censorship. Same guy had also previously said "unfuckingbelievable" to the same professor on the very issue you mentioned. (The...

    HIV you mean. Would be some feat to be able to withstand AIDS for 30 years. :D

    Coronavirus

    It is well-established that the advent of agriculture and animal husbandry resulted in an up spike of infectious diseases among human populations. You have to call into question agriculture and animal husbandry in general if you want to go that route, not just eating meat. At this point in human...

    Dream Theater

    Bit of a challenge to make anything Helloween-related interesting, to be fair.

    IRON MAIDEN ALBUM REFERENDUM 2020: Results -> Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son wins!

    I'd take Como Estais Amigos over Out of the Shadows any day of the week, and I say that as someone who has AMOLAD in his Top 4 and rates Virtual XI in the bottom two. CEA is a really moving song with an excellent melody in its interlude.

    IRON MAIDEN ALBUM REFERENDUM 2020: Results -> Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son wins!

    The only thing on Powerslave that gives me filler vibes is the fact that Losfer Words and The Duellists sound very similar at times.

    IRON MAIDEN ALBUM REFERENDUM 2020: Results -> Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son wins!

    The thing I appreciate the most about Powerslave is how cohesive it is. Diesel is right in saying that it's the highest octane metal record Maiden ever released. It never loses its pulse throughout, even when the weaker tracks are playing. It has that "more than the sum of its parts" thing only...

    Crazy news 'round the globe

    I think that stems from some Lebanese officials saying dumb stuff like this is our Hiroshima or whatever.

    IRON MAIDEN ALBUM REFERENDUM 2020: Results -> Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son wins!

    The battle of "the ones who think Powerslave is overrated and has too many fillers", and "the ones who think Somewhere in Time is overrated and has too many fillers" tilts the scales towards a Seventh Son of a Seventh Son victory, it looks like. If AMOLAD goes, it'll be curious to see where the...

    Coronavirus

    Too many apathetic people around for the numbers to drop drastically. The number of people I've heard say stuff along the lines of "Well, we'll all die one day" or "Well, nobody really wears a mask here" is really maddening. No sense of consequence, no sense of responsibility whatsoever.

    AMOLAD. Very close call with SSOASS. The other two I have a league above.

    GREATEST METAL ALBUM CUP - Winner: Iron Maiden - Seventh Son of a Seventh Son!

    Shine On (I-V) and Have a Cigar are my favorites on the album. Both Top 10 Pink Floyd tracks overall. Welcome to the Machine, Wish You Were Here and Shine On (VI-IX) are decent. It's really those two that push it toward all-time great territory for me. Animals takes the cake for me. The most...
